Hello Bob,
Many thanks for your thorough answer!
It seems that FM could be used if not as an XML editor itself, so at
least as last step in a publishing chain. Right now I think that maybe
I can live with the shortcomings you mentioned, - or so at least I
will try.
That the output is not quite 100% perfect, with more or less annoying
changes, might be acceptable - it depends on the time I have to spend
to fix the problems manually.
The real time-looser seems to be the editing of the formatting rules
using not the built-in dialogs but the new EDD rules ... maybe I'll
try to cut it down to the "Simplified Docbook", since we hardly need
all the elements.
Anyway, I began to convince the department to buy the 7.0, and let's
see ...
Best regards,
